I'm in sixth grade I am a nice person and I get good grades. I like the old shows like cheers , Frasier , and The Cosby show. My favorite color is red. My aunt Alicia your brother's wife are married and have been since the year 2007 when I was four.

A week later. "Mom mom guess what guess what". "What is it Ava " Uncle Yat he wrote back I'm so excited to read the letter.
Dear Ava
This is your Uncle Yat let me tell you something about you the reason why I never met you was your grandma and grandpa P adopted me. When I was a kid growing up with your Mom and uncles and your grandma and grandpa P kids thought me and my step brother Matt were twins so I kind of lied and told people we were but then I couldn't hold it in any longer I had to tell people so I told the truth and everyone still liked me even though I'm not Matthew's twin brother. I didn't know you had a medical condition I still think you and Priscilla are amazing niece to have. I am also
married and I have two kids both boys att , and Yatt Jr. I am also married to my wife gladdie we have been together for 25 years I am 50 and my wife is 46 we both graduated college and bought a house in our 4th year of marriage then in our 9th year of marriage we had the kids and there also twins. My favorite color is blue. I also love cheers , and Frasier , and my kids like the Cosby show. I hope we can meet someday
From Uncle Yat

Hey everyone Yat said Ava this is my wife gladdie and att and yatt Jr. I loved your letter Yat said thanks so much for writting to me. Hey I have a idea why don't you come over to Staten Island NY. I don't know jo come on it will be fun I'll call my grandma and tell her I'm bringing a special guest. Hello grandma tell my mom I'm coming to NY with a special guest and call the family and invite them over. I'm sorry I didn't tell you this but I'm shy. It is ok Yat these people are my family and is also yours. A couple of hours later everyone was here and the moment was here. Ladies and gentlemen meet Yat (applusing). Then everyone said welcome to the family Yat. Then Yat made a speech and said.
Yat's speech
Thank you everyone I feel so welcomed if it hasn't been for this girl Ava Marie Beeler I wouldn't have met her and all of you. You know Yat cousin Christian said I am the one who told her you have a uncle Yat. Thank you so much Christian. This feels like a family and this is my family Yat said.
The end
From Ava
It was so cool to write about my Uncle Yat if my Uncle Yat was a real person and I wish he was it was still funny to write about him now I actually wish he was my uncle Yat thank you Cousin Christan for giving me the idea.

ReplyDeleteYour stories are getting very interesting. Maybe you'll be a writer. You have such a lively imagination. Love the tale of our long-lost son.
ReplyDeleteThat was great! I see a whole series. The Saga Of Uncle Yatt...
ReplyDeleteDear Ava - it's me cousin Christian. Hooray! Hooray for Uncle Yat! This was really a great story. I read it twice!!! I just knew combining your great imagination and writing skills with a dash of Uncle Yat would cook up an entertaining feast for the senses! I look forward to seeing what you're going to write next. Go Ava!
